I know this is an impressions thread but I don't know where to put this and doubt it deserves a thread of its own. But anyway, I just tried out something pretty cool. I just unlocked Original Masked Kane after beating him at WrestleMania 14. Then I decided to have a little fun and have him face the New Masked Kane. I don't think Original Masked Kane liked what he would become in the future.
I guess, unless it was already known for a while, what I did confirms that some wrestlers can face themselves literally.

I love the ability to plug in a User Playlist for the menus. Made a big playlist of non-entrance music (aside from Bray Wyatt's theme) and put it in the game, replacing the rest of the menu music.
One of those little things that enhances the experience in a way.

I'm getting better user-CPU matches out of WWE 2K14 than any previous Yukes' wrestling game by leaps and bounds.
The last match I played tonight - Hulk Hogan against Big Show in my Universe - I took control of Hogan and proceeded to get wrecked by Show for most of the match; he landed two Show Stoppers and an OMG ring apron DDT, and he blocked my Comeback sequence. It took me nailing the kick out meter better than I had in any match previous, and multiple times (seemingly every time at 2-and-half), for me to buy time to get in two leg drops and win the match. It was an intense bout.
I had a similar bout earlier with a created wrestler against Yokozuna, but I wasn't able to kick out of a second Banzai Drop. I actually find myself legitimately losing to the CPU a good deal of the time, I'd say somewhere between 30 and 50 percent of my matches, playing on Legend difficulty. It keeps things interesting knowing that the CPU is a viable threat, and without feeling cheap.

Haven't picked up a wrestling game since 2011 and this is by far one of the best WWE games I've played. Things that I clearly noticed: the controls are super responsive, load times are very quick especially in creation mode, menus aren't clunky, and the reversal system is pretty demanding, I love the action-figure like look of the player models, animations are pretty smooth, commentators have got a lot better, etc.
Overall, I am really loving this game right now. I'm playing through the 30 Year campaign and it's a great way of taking you on a nostalgic ride while introducing one to the gameplay and mechanics of each fighter. Haven't dived into Universe mode just yet. Xbox Live play seems fun, but right now I'm just playing with lobby-garbage, I'm sure if I can find a few dedicated peeps it should have lots of replay value.

Finished Wrestlemania mode last night. So awesome. Some matches were challenging, especially since I was going for 100% completion.
The sickest thing I've seen so far happened during the HBK vs Jericho match. I had Jericho on the mat and I tried a move from the top rope and he caught me with a code breaker in mid-air. I popped and pooped at the same time. AI is sooooo much better this year.
And how awesome are all the video packages? I grew up a huge fan from 88ish - 2000 and have been back to watching religiously since 2010, but I basically didn't watch at all from 2000 - 2010. So, it's cool to see all this stuff I missed during my vacation from sports entertainment.

Me and kids have been working our way thru the WM mode..waiting to actually beat the mode before starting Universe....i absolutely love this game..best wrestling game ever so far in the series. i have the season pass like I do each year. I think 2k is making a big mistake not giving us the Wyatt's...they are blasted all over both shows on wwe television... Cc has them but need tattoos to complete the package like wwe13 versions..awesome best caws IMO last year end.

Hopefully 2K figures out how to cancel a taunt so that you aren't forced to be sucked into a move, because THQ sure as hell never could figure it out this gen.

Is there a way to make the entrance theme music louder? It's barely audible.

is there an actual career mode or is it just that wrestlemania thing?
